One has a most excellent opportunity TO
study "man" as represented by tho average
New Workers, Among the wealthy classes.
very many of them have the waxy skin,
dropsical flesh, and pulled eyes, that are
indicative OF serious kidney affection.
"Bright's disease" Is plainly written on their
faces. Since General Logan's death tho sub
ject of rheumatism is being discussed BY tho
medical profession,
Every Intelligent person, with any knowl-
eige of the human system, is well aware that
II the kidneys are in good condition all I'M
necessary material is regularly carried oil
by them. II not, various acids, such as uric
ncid, one of tho chief causes OF rheumatism,
are left in excess creating deposits that cause
all sorts Of chronic organic diseases lt
would seem, therefore, that rheumatism like
dropsy, is not disease, but the result OK
disease and it is safe to say that IL tho
stomach and kidneys are kept in h althful
condition, there will DO no deaths from rheu-
Matism,
General Logan was well aware that his
disease was OF the kidneys, and once ex-
pressed himself in indignant terms at the
folly Of doctors treating him for rheumatism,
when it was the kidneys that caused his
attacks. The high living and the excuses in
all things prevalent among wealthy mon in
large cities, especially in New York. is tho
chief cause for Bright's disease, and the aris-
tocratic trouble known as rheumatism, even
as insufficient and improper food bring about
the same results among the very poor,
Tho above article, which we reproduce be-
cause of its general interest, is very signif.
can't The public believes that rheumatism
is an effect of diseased blood this disease be-
ing causad by uric acid or kidney poison.
Enough Of this is developed daily to kill sew
eral men, and il it is not removed by the kid
news as fast as formed, it gradually ruins tho
health.
This fact is scientific demonstration.
If do,tors do not admit it, it is probably
because they do not wish to attract atter-
ton to the menace deranged kidneys oilers
to the general health, since they have no
authorized specific for these organs.
General Logan knew what his real trouble
was, and he recognized the nonsense OF treat
ing the effects-the real seat OF the disease
was tho kidneys Senator Sittig, of Illinois.
whose vote elected Logan Senator after four
months Of balloting, tells us that Logan often
complained to him OF great distress III MS
kidneys. Disease Of the kidneys always
produces rheumatism, and besides that, 1t
causes paralysis, npoplesy, impotency,
stomach and blood disorders, brain troubles,
female complaints and countless other dis.
eases which would almost never develop II
the blood was kept free Of uric acid or kidney
poison.
These facts the public recognizes even
though medical gentlemen for very evident
reasons, will not publicly acknowledge them
lest perchance, some proprietary medicine like
Warmers safe cure, now admitted to be the
only scientific specific, will get tho benefit.
Fie on such bigotry! 1t has been authori-
tatively stated time and again that there can
be no real sound health il there is any false
action of the kidneys. Insurance companies
refuse millions of risks on this ground alone,
herce it is that there is such universal popu.
larity given to the great preparation named
"a popularity that is based upon intrinsic
merit.
Too much dependence upon professional
advice, especially in matters over which
medical men almit they have no power, too
often results very disastrously, but of what
use to the victim is experience gained by ia
tai disaster!
How much better it is to be guided by an
unpre iudicel public opinion in such matters
Had Logan been so guided he might nave
been spared many years.
